<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 122631, member: 37"]We don't see a lot of Fulper out here and many don't know what it is. Pottery is so dead right now and a lot of people don't know or care.

The buyers here would think $39.00 is a fortune to pay for a piece of pottery. </p><p><br /></p><p>There are good buys at the local auction when things come up. We don't see much good pottery but occasionally something will come through. The Roseville goes cheap but a little higher than some since people know what it is. I bought my piece of Teco similarly at auction where it was choice from a lot. I was prepared to go up to $350.00 on it and thought I might get outbid. I got it for $40.00. It was marked but partially obscured by glaze. The auctioneer thought it might be Chinese characters...... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/confused.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" /> Of course everyone was viewing the mark horizontally, whereas, Teco is marked vertically. The dealers here aren't dumb but they sure missed this one. God forbid that a rusty gas can would get away from them ...... LOL![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
